| A Briton who recruited Islamist extremists online to stage holy war worldwide, including Britain's youngest terrorism convict, was jailed for 12 years on Tuesday. Aabid Khan, 23, built up a computer "encyclopaedia" of extremist material including a file on Britain's royal family, London's Blackfriars Crown Court heard during the trial. Khan, a former fast food restaurant worker from Bradford, was jailed after being convicted on three counts of possessing articles for a purpose connected with terrorism. His cousin and "right-hand man" Sultan Muhammad, also 23, was jailed for 10 years for posessing similar material. On Monday the court convicted the two men as well as Hammaad Munshi, who was 16 at the time of his arrest. Munshi will be sentenced next month. |
